Adam Smasher didn't become a cyberpsycho

Hello everyone, a little strange question appeared, perhaps due to watching a cyberpunk anime. Why didn't Adam Smasher become a cyberpsycho when almost his entire body is a cyber implant. Like cyberpsychosis was caused due to a large amount of chromium, or some kind of influence on the human psyche, it seems. So why didn't Smasher go off the rails?

In my opinion, if you study the lore of Cyberpunk 2022, then it will be said that his brain was just put into a cyber body, in fact these are not implants, but something like a robocop

Firstly, ARASAKA supports him, think for yourself there are preparations for super soldiers, in the anime cartoon it is said

Too many different possibilities. No one was embarrassed that there are demons in the netrunner causing a state close to cyberpsychosis. So many cyberpsychics could just dump the demon.
Given that not all stuffed with chromium become them.
Next come the options with the type of cyber-implants. Basically, this state is caused by the presence of military prototypes. Perhaps the inability to quickly adapt to implants and mental overload. That is, unprepared people become them in 2 accounts.
Further in the game, I came across articles where experiments were carried out on people using AI that corrected the consciousness of people, after which they became aggressive and began to kill.
Well, as stated above, Smasher may well be AI itself.

In general, given how often Cyberpunk and Shadowrun overlap in terms of "humanity", the option of social phobia, psychosis and psychopathy as a method that allows you not to lose humanity is quite possible. The same Rakter from Shadowrun Honk Hong declares that literally most of his body has been replaced, and part of his personality has been chopped off by a drone, and at the same time he does not catch cyberpsychosis (it works a little differently here, here you turn into a vegetable, and do not become a dude who breaks everything).

Just think.
